Interleaved Array Antennas for FMCW Radar Applications

An effective and robust strategy for concurrently designing the transmit and receive antennas of a frequency-modulated, continuos-wave radar is discussed. The aperture architecture is based on the use of non-periodic, interleaved sub-arrays. Deterministic element placement is employed for ensuring design efficiency. The procedure yields controllable sub-array radiation patterns and two-way side-lobe levels below - 30 dB, that are also stable over a wide frequency range.
